Chapter Seventy-Four: Melee
Today is the third watch...
Luomudan's move "Peach Blossoms Falling" was her signature technique, not just the scattered peach blossom petals that could hurt people like flying knives, but also the faint fragrance of flowers, combined with her charming face, was a great spell that disturbed people's minds. However, today, she did not fascinate the three men, and her soft voice was like a solo performance, only one person singing back and forth, without anyone to appreciate it.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart at this scene.
"These three people are young and inexperienced, but their growth potential is enormous."
Although she thought so, there was an order to overturn the green mountain on her body. Her hands were not weak at all. A cane flew up and down, bringing the peach blossoms to bloom continuously. Her figure, like a fairy, wandered in the petals of the sky. Although it was one person against three people, she had already completely suppressed the offensive of the three people.
Lin Ye, Liu Sheng and Zhang Chong felt the pressure increasing, Liu Sheng's attack was fearless, but his body had more than a dozen wounds. Lin Ye's figure was agile, with a flying knife in hand that was extremely nimble, but despite this, the peach blossom petals still left five or six marks on his body. Zhang Chong stood in front of Luo Mu Dan, the two black and white smokes in front of the Heart-Devouring Cudgel were like two small snakes, suddenly advancing and retreating, making him the most difficult to defend against.
However, the pressure on Zhang Chong's body did not only come from Luo Mudan, but also from within his own body. To utilize the power of heaven and earth, guide the two completely uncontrollable spiritual powers and magical forces within his body, and make them serve him, he needed to use a great deal of mental energy to control them. If he was slightly careless, it would lead to the two powers no longer being able to balance each other, and at that time, the pressure on Zhang Chong's body would be extremely enormous.
Zhang Chong had already experienced that kind of scene that made him almost die several times. And in the current battle with Luo Mudan, if such a gap appeared again, it would directly declare their defeat.
So, Zhang Zhong gritted his teeth and completely stopped feeling anything else, focusing solely on controlling the three forces. As Lu Mudan's attack intensified, he also guided more spiritual energy and magic out of his body. The two black and white misty auras extending from the rod seemed to have a mind of their own, automatically blocking Lu Mudan's attacks.
Slowly, Zhang Chong had already guided out about one-tenth of his spiritual power and magic work, which made him sweat through his clothes, and his mind was also exerted to the extreme. It could be said that his current state was like a water jug that had been filled with water, and as soon as he added a little more, it would overflow.
Fortunately, Lu Mudan had never seen Zhang Chong's move before and was somewhat intimidated, so he didn't launch a fierce attack on him. As a result, Zhang Chong managed to catch his breath.
After Huashan and Yunwu left, they were about to leave quickly, but heard the sound of fighting from Lianyugou just now, which also made them feel very strange.
"What's going on, could there be other cultivators passing by this place?" Hua Shan thought of this immediately, but soon denied it. In the current Dangyang Realm, cultivators are extremely cautious and usually won't appear unless they have a task to complete. This route, apart from the two of them, shouldn't have any other visitors.
But if it's a loose cultivator or demon, they should be even less likely to do so. After all, when a disciple of the Longevity Gate goes out, it means their strength is not strong enough, and with a powerful sect as their backing, no one dares to provoke them.
Is it an internal conflict within the Demon Clan? This is even more impossible.
After flashing through many thoughts, Yunwu's heart suddenly gave rise to an ominous premonition. She exclaimed:
"Could it be that Little Shifu was discovered by them because he just gave us a signal?"
She called out like that, and Mount Hua was also equally shocked. He specialized in cultivation and was considered one of the best among his peers, but when it came to meticulous thinking, he was still not as good as Yunwu. Hearing her say this, he also felt that there seemed to be endless possibilities.
"We'll go back there immediately and take a look at the situation. If necessary, we must take action to rescue him." Hua Shan said this and immediately turned around and flew away.
When they rushed back to Wild Goose Valley, the sound of fighting grew more intense. They looked over and saw a stunningly beautiful woman fighting alone against three men, who were the same ones they had just met.
"Infighting among the Demon Clan?" Seeing this unbelievable scene, Huashan's first reaction also jumped out from his mind.
"Could it be that those people are Little Shifu's friends and they're protecting him?" Yun Wu also guessed from the side.
At this time, Zhang Chong's mind and spirit were no longer connected, the aura in his hand could no longer be controlled stably. At this moment, the spiritual power inside his body had overwhelmed the demonic energy, and it was frantically surging within him.
The huge shock immediately made Zhang Chong's mouth sweet, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. He also fell backwards.
"It's not good~~" Hua Shan saw Zhang Chong encounter danger, and he couldn't help but reveal his figure. The Qing Gang Sword in his hand was immediately drawn out of its scabbard, and his figure shot out like lightning. Yun Wu also followed closely behind him, keeping pace with him.
"Ah yo~~~" Luomudan didn't expect Zhang Chong to suddenly lose control and fall, she attaches great importance to cleanliness. At this moment, she saw the fresh blood spraying towards her direction, and let out a soft cry, quickly dodging to avoid it. Only then did she launch an attack on Zhang Chong.
At this time, Mount Hua's offensive also started.
The green sword in his hand emitted a dragon's hum, and although he had not yet arrived, a green sword energy shot out from afar towards the location of Luo Mudan. Luo Mudan remained calm in the face of danger, stretched out her hand and gently blocked it with a smile, saying
"Hey, what's going on here? Where did these two lovers come from?"
She spoke words, yet she lightly dissolved Huashan's powerful move.
Yunwu's face turned bright red with shame after hearing her words, and the [Light Cloud Sword] in her hand also made a soft sound, as if striking and wrapping around, attacking towards Luomudan's location.
The two of them joined forces, which actually made Lin Ye and Liu Sheng feel a lot less pressure in an instant. And as for Zhang Chong, he had already fainted.
As a Night Demon-level strongman, Luo Mudan's strength was still only at the first stage, but it was much higher than that of a Divine Power-level strongman. So, although she was fighting one against four, she still had plenty of energy to spare, and while fighting, she was also laughing and saying:
"What's going on here? Are you saying that even the disciples of cultivators are being accepted by the Long Life Gate nowadays?"
Actually, when Hua Shan and Yun Wu jumped out, Liu Sheng and Lin Ye were also shocked. However, seeing the two of them, they surprisingly joined forces to fight against Luo Mu Dan. Although they didn't know the reason, it did resolve their crisis. Nevertheless, the reason behind this, they had no idea at all.
This confusing situation can be explained by one person, Zhang Chong, but at this time, he fainted.
These five people were in a chaotic melee, except for Luo Mudan, no one else spoke. Lin Ye and Liu Sheng on this side, and Hua Shan and Yun Wu on the other side, maintained a subtle tacit understanding due to their common enemy.
However, there were still people who broke this tranquility, and someone was shouting in the distance.
"It seems like there's a fight up ahead."
Upon hearing this voice, Luo Mudan's heart skipped a beat. This mission of hers was one that Qing Shan had entrusted to her in secret, so apart from herself, no one else knew about it, and even more so, there wouldn't be any reinforcements.
Liu Sheng and Hua Shan were even more shocked, they were extremely certain that no one would come to help them except themselves. These people, in all likelihood, were enemies rather than friends.
However, each of them had an abacus in their heart, and their hands did not stop for a moment, all hoping to end this battle as soon as possible.
But those sounds were getting closer and closer.
